Cragg leads AE 1-2 in Q2

Neil Cragg led a Team Associated 1-2 in the second round of 2WD qualifying at the Euro Offroad Series, the EOS Daun winner topping the times in Austria from young Swedish team-mate Elias Johansson.  Again the qualifier would see mistakes, or lack of mistakes, decide the result.  Having taken the opening qualifier, Michal Orlowski looked on target to repeat but working through traffic he had contact with Round 1 podium finisher Daniel Kobbevik.  Getting out of his rhythm as a result, on the next lap the Schumacher driver had a costly mistake eventually ending up 6th fastest for the round.  Another to challenge for the TQ, Bruno Coelho would collect Marc Rheinard who had put his Yokomo on its roof leaving the Top Seed with a tweaked car leading to a subsequent incident in which a mistake from the Xray driver ended up costing Joern Neumann around 5-seconds in the wall section.  At the end of the 5-minutes it was Coelho who recovered to complete the Top 3 ahead of Rheinard and Lee Martin.
